Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion The Water Cooler TYPES OF SACD'S

John, while you're at that site you should pick up this .

bigjohn,

I'd definitely pick up Alison Krauss and Union Station Live on SACD, even if you already have it on regular cd. The surround mix is very subtle, but extremely well mixed - it does an awesome job of recreating the space of the hall. A couple times I compared the cd layer to the sacd layer on select tracks, and there's no doubt about it, the SACD is much more involving - just clearly better, imo.

i am definitely looking for some different sacd's to audition on my new system. thanks for all ya'lls input, and i will let ya know what i think as i start to listen to a few.

BTW- my local selection of sacds and dvd-a's is very poor. we have a hastings, sam goody, and one other place out in the mall, but i never go out there. avoid it like the plague. i guess were just a little slow to catch up to the rest of the world.. thats a good thing sometimes.
